Know before you buy
This ornament is crafted using traditional glass beads strung together on a delicate steel wire frame.
No, this piece is designed exclusively for indoor use. The glass and wire construction is delicate and should be kept away from harsh weather conditions.
The star measures 4.25 inches in diameter, making it a versatile size for hanging on a Christmas tree or incorporating into a holiday centerpiece.
Each piece is hand-manufactured in Poniklá, Czech Republic, using a historic glass bead blowing technique that has been recognized as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. It is the only company in the world still practicing this specific traditional craft.
Because this is an heirloom-quality piece made of glass, it should be stored in a sturdy box with protective padding to prevent the beads from cracking or the wire frame from bending.
